About: I’ve cared for dogs for friends, family, and neighbors, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playing, or sticking to their normal routine, I make sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I understand that every pet has a different personality and needs, so I’m patient, attentive, and happy to follow any special instructions. I treat every pet like they’re my own, and my goal is to give owners complete peace of mind knowing their furry family member is in good hands. As a college student with a balanced schedule , I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the day for drop-in visits, walks, or overnight care. I’m also happy to commute to make pet care as convenient as possible for you Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow your instructions, keep doors and gates secure, make sure your pet always has fresh food and water, and maintain their normal routine to help them feel comfortable. I’ll also treat your home with respect, keep everything clean, and send regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: Hi there! I'm Louise, and animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember — I grew up with dogs and cats and have never been without a pet by my side. That lifelong experience means I'm genuinely comfortable and confident with animals of every age and stage, from bouncy puppies and curious kittens to gentle, slower-paced seniors who need a little extra care. I understand that handing your pet over to someone new can feel nerve-wracking, so I treat every dog and cat in my care the way I'd want my own treated — with patience, attention, and plenty of affection. I'm experienced in administering medication, so if your pet has ongoing health needs, allergies, or is recovering from something, you can relax knowing they're in capable hands. Whether your pet needs a calm routine, an active play session, or just someone to sit with them and keep them company, I'll take the time to learn their personality and quirks so they feel safe and comfortable. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages throughout our time together, because I know how much peace of mind that brings. Your pet's comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priority. I'd love to meet you both! I'm a full-time parent, so pet care fits neatly around the school day. I'm available for visits on weekdays during school hours, plus some Saturdays, giving pets a calm, consistent routine. I provide care entirely in your own home, so your pet stays in their familiar environment with their normal routine, bed, and belongings — no stress of travel or a new space. I take time to learn each pet's habits, boundaries, and any specific needs before I start, and I'm comfortable administering medication if required. I always follow the instructions you leave for feeding, walks, or house rules, and I'm attentive to small signs of stress or discomfort so I can respond calmly and appropriately. I keep the home secure while I'm there — locking doors, keeping gates closed, and leaving everything as I found it — and I send photo and text updates throughout the visit so you always know how things are going.
About: I have had cats since I was a young girl and own two 10 year old cats now, adopted from rescue shelters. I love all animals! I will ensure they have clean food and water, play and cuddle time, clean litter, and lots of love. I have five star ratings because I am caring, reliable, respectful, clean and communicative and truly love cats and the people I meet. I work remotely and have flexible hours so can pop in for a day time visit or stay overnights when I’m not caring for my daughter (have shared custody so a good amount of time on my own and enjoy traveling to care for cats too). I am attentive and communicative and will ask for your preferences but care for cats in their home and comfort zone. I am very familiar with cats and comfortable around animals.

About: I have had a pet dog or cat ever since I was born. I have had experience with pets at a variety of ages, including very young, and super seniors, such as 20. Depending on the times that you may need sitting, I am available to come early in the morning, feed to your specifications, and do a variety of other pet caring chores. If your pet requires lots of play to get energy out, that is something I more more than happy to do. I have helped care for a variety of age groups and energies. Theres a big difference in the work required for an active puppy, and an aging friend.

“This was our second time using Ashleigh to take care of our two cats. We very much appreciated her care and attention to the boys. Ashleigh left the house in great condition.”

About: Since highschool, I've been watching family and friend's homes & pets. I have experience with all shapes and sizes of dogs, cats, fish and even some farm animals. I only ever had my own animals when I was a child so as someone who loves being around them, I am grateful for any experiences I get to do so 😊 I am a digital freelancer so all my work is done on my laptop. This allows me to determine my own schedule and provides flexibility in not only the hours I work but where in the world I put those hours in (around 3-4 hours daily, 4 days a week) I've always taken pride in leaving a housesit with the place looking exactly the same as you left it (if not better) and providing the animals with such a positive experience that when given the opportunity to watch them again, they are ecstatic to see me 😊
About: I’ve been pet sitting for family friends for about 10 years, I adore animals and spend most of my free time with them as well I am currently unemployed and hoping to fill my time with pet-sitting. I love animals and I am caring for family/friends pets daily, just to be around them. I am searching for jobs, I am looking for remote positions, which will not affect my pet sitting availability. I don’t leave other than to go to the gym for an hour or two at a time, I prefer to stay home mostly and play with animals, read or watch movies

About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember! I currently have two dogs, two cats, and fish, and I’ve also cared for birds, guinea pigs, and rabbits throughout my life. Having experience with so many different animals has taught me that every pet has its own personality, needs, and routines. As a mom of two young children and an educator, I’m patient, responsible, attentive to details, and great at following instructions. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care, and I’ll do my best to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets like my own and keep you updated so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind! I work part-time as a tutor and caregiver for an adult with special needs, which gives me a flexible schedule and the ability to accommodate walks and drop-in visits throughout the week. I’m happy to coordinate with pet parents to find times that work best for their pets’ routines and needs. I understand how important consistency is for animals, and I’ll do my best to provide dependable, attentive care that fits seamlessly into your pet’s day! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities! I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes, where pets can stay in their familiar environment and feel comfortable while you’re away. As a lifelong pet owner, I understand the importance of following feeding schedules, respecting each pet’s boundaries, keeping doors and gates secure, and maintaining a clean, safe environment. I’ll carefully follow your instructions, give your pets plenty of attention and affection, and keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in caring, trustworthy hands.

About: Hello! 🐾 Working with animals has been my passion for as long as I can remember. I have over a decade of experience caring for dogs and cats, including experience in dog grooming, working in a veterinary clinic, and providing professional pet-sitting services. I’m responsible, trustworthy, and truly dedicated to providing the best care possible for every pet I look after. I love going the extra mile for my clients and making sure their fur babies feel happy, safe, and loved while they’re away. Whether that means taking the pups on fun little field trips and adventures or simply staying home, cuddling, and keeping them company, I’m happy to tailor my care to their individual needs. 🐶💕 Your pets are family, and I treat them that way! 🐾🌸🩷 Feel free to send me a message so we can set up a meet-and-greet. I’d absolutely love the opportunity to meet you and your fur baby! ☺️🐶🐾💕 I have a very flexible schedule and am able to work around each client’s individual needs and routine. I’m happy to accommodate different schedules, whether that means daily visits, overnight stays, walks, or simply providing companionship and care while you’re away. My goal is to make sure every pet feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for while their family is away. When caring for pets, I like to learn as much as possible about their individual routines and needs so I can provide the best care possible. I like to know their feeding schedule, any medications they may be taking, and whether there are any behavioral or special needs I should be aware of. I also take into consideration their age, whether they are a puppy, kitten, adult, or senior, as some pets may need a little extra attention, patience, or care. For every pet-sitting arrangement, I also appreciate having an emergency contact and the information for their regular veterinarian or a nearby emergency vet, just in case something unexpected happens. My goal is to make each pet feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for just as they would be at home.
“Helen was truly excellent. My cat immediately liked her and I know he enjoyed his time with her because she sent me so many (welcome) videos and pictures. She updated me not only whenever she was coming and going but when and how much he was eating so there is no doubt in my mind that she spent a great deal of time at my house with my cat despite having her own family, and that she spent lots of loving time with my fur baby. She did the laundry, replaced the tissues and detergent, which I didn’t even request, and she left the place cleaner than when I left. I feel much better planning trips knowing that I now have more than one dependable pet sitter. Highly recommend.”


About: I have taken care of all animal types from livestock to small animals like cats and reptiles. I grew up on a ranch in Colorado showing, training and raising goats, horses, rabbits, dogs, and more. I love animals and being active, and I’m excited to meet your furry family! I am currently a full time student at California Lutheran University and am free for walks and check ins on weekdays before 10:30am and after 4:30pm, full flexibility on weekends. I always treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. When I’m doing drop‑ins or house sitting, I keep your space tidy, follow all instructions closely, and make sure doors, gates, and crates are secured the way you prefer. Your animals safety is my top priority — I stick to familiar walking routes, avoid unsafe areas, and use your preferred leash, harness, and walking style. I’m attentive, calm, and patient with all animals, and I make sure they get the right mix of exercise, routine, and affection.You’ll always get clear communication and updates so you know exactly how your pet is doing while you’re away.
“My cat stayed at their home, and I couldn’t be happier with the care he received! They took such wonderful care of him and made me feel completely comfortable leaving him with them. Communication was amazing, and I really appreciated the updates. He was happy and well cared for, and I could tell he was in great hands. I would absolutely trust them with my baby again and highly recommend them! ❤️🐾”


“Kathleen was awesome! She was very communicative throughout caring for my kitties, punctual and very respectful of my space and care for my babies while I was away. She was such a great sitter and will definitely use her again in the future. Thank you!!”


About: Hi, I’m Sophia! I’ve been caring for pets for years, building a network of happy clients through neighbors, family friends, and word of mouth. Dogs, cats, puppies, seniors — I’ve done it all, from quick drop-ins to six-month house sits. Whatever your pet needs, I show up with a full heart, active energy and a real routine that keeps them happy and at ease. I pride myself on being someone pet owners can truly trust. During the LA wildfires, I was house sitting near the evacuation zones when I made the call to safely pack up my client’s pets and their most precious belongings and get out, keeping everyone and everything safe until they could come home. That’s the kind of sitter I am: calm, present, and completely committed. I genuinely love this work. Waking up with a dog to walk, taking them out on hikes through the hills, spending the day giving them cuddles and all the attention they deserve, it truly fills my cup. Your pets won’t just be cared for, they’ll be showered with joy and mirth! Based in the Woodland Hills and Topanga area, available for boarding, house sitting, drop-in visits, dog walking, and daycare. Pet care is woven into my daily life naturally and genuinely. I keep an open, flexible schedule which means I’m truly present with the animals in my care — mornings start with walks and feeding routines, days are filled with playtime, cuddles and attention, and evenings wind down with the kind of calm, settled care that helps pets feel secure. I don’t rush off to a nine to five. I’m here, and your pet feels that. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, safety and comfort are everything to me. In my own space, I live with my cat Milo and keep a calm, cozy, pet friendly environment with plenty of room to relax and explore. A partner is often home as well, so your pet always has loving company and is never left alone for long. The Topanga and Woodland Hills area means we’re surrounded by nature with beautiful trails and open space right at our doorstep for walks, hikes and outdoor adventures. In your home I adapt completely to your pet’s existing routine, environment and needs. I learn their habits, respect their space and follow your instructions carefully. I treat every home I work in as if it were my own - with attentiveness, care and a deep sense of responsibility. Your pet, your home and everything you love will be looked after with the same devotion I bring to my own.

About: I’ve grown up with animals my whole life. My first puppy was a Yorkie named Lola, who I got when I was 5 — she was my first love! Animals have always been one of the most meaningful parts of my life, and that hasn’t changed. I currently live with two cats and a dog, including my cat Kai, who is truly my pride and joy and the light of my life. I’d do absolutely anything for him, so I know firsthand what it’s like to love and care for your pet like they’re your child. Growing up, a lot of my volunteer work centered around animals, from helping at shelters to walking dogs in my neighborhood. I’d love to be an extra source of love, care, and support for you and your little one, and hopefully become your pet’s new favorite neighborhood friend! I care for the pets in my house everyday normally - as well as my partners cat. I also just finished the project I was on and have a lot of free time to help support you and your pets! I approach every animal I meet with gentleness and patience. Building trust is extremely important and every animal of different. I’m here to learn what your animal needs from me and adjust my approach intuitively.
About: I’ve been a pet owner from the time I was 5 years old, and I’ve been caring for them since. I can feed, walk, play, bathe, and even help with minimal grooming. I will love your pet like they are my own. I am available after 3pm most days and will come to you to perform whatever duties your pet needs—walking, feeding, playing, etc. I can’t have pets where I live, so it will be as much of a treat for me as it is for your pet :) I can offer services to your pet in the comfort of their home. The limit to my patience with animals does not exist. I’m happy to do whatever works for your individual pet as far as routine goes, so long as it fits into my schedule.
About: I had my dog Nala ever since I was 9. I also grew up with cats, chickens, horses and goats. I would tell I get along with all animals more than people:) Hi my name is Evan! A little about me, I’m the biggest animal lover you will ever meet. I’m 21 years old. I have worked with all sorts of animals even 1500 Ib creatures! I have cerebral palsy and am non-verbal which has led me to a calm, patient, and observant approach to pet care. Animals have always been a natural fit for me and I communicate clearly and reliably through text, notes and the Rover app. Pet sitting allows me to give animals focused, loving care in a low-stress environment which is where I do my best work :) I currently do not have a job so I have all the time to play with some furry friends!! Some of the fun activities that I can provide is taking them on fun walks, playing fetch or tug of war, or simply just chilling together. I am always checking on the pets well being and safety!
“Mario made sure he found a way to have my kittens fed when they didnt like a new flavor of wet food. I appreciate that he kept trying until they ate something and was communicating. Also he always cleans up their litter box which is so helpful.”

About: I have responsibly cared for animals since childhood and throughout my adulthood. Growing up my family home was always open to new pets - cats, dogs, mice, hamsters, guinea pigs, reptiles, you name it! There I learned the skills required to care for an animal of any temperament, I learned to adapt their unique needs and to help them feel safe and secure in your absence. I have years of experience as a trustworthy pet owner and caretaker of dogs and cats of all ages. I promise to care for your pet reliably, mindfully, and intuitively, pulling from years of developed expertise to ensure your emotional ease and their comfort and wellbeing. I have been building my business app-free but now I’m so happy to offer my services to fellow animal lovers through Rover. I love what I do, I’m flexible to your schedule, and I hope to offer you peace of mind (and lots of pictures upon request) knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for! I work from home and my hours are flexible so I am able to provide your pet with the 24/7 care and attention they need. I live in a one bedroom apartment, if I am caring for your pet in my own space I have plenty of room for your pet to play. I love to be outside and am available for walks at any hour of the day.
About: I love dogs and most all other domestic animals and I plan to have a career working with animals. I would love to help care for your dog, take them on walks and spend time playing with them. I can’t wait to meet your precious pet! I’m 21 and currently a student at Northern Arizona University. During the summer and winter holidays, I’m back home with a pretty flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to help care for pets. I have a large fenced yard, as well as my mom and sister to give your pup some extra love. We also have 2 dogs and 2 cats who absolutely love meeting new doggy/kitty friends and can easily crate your dog if needed!

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
